FLSA Exemption Rules, Regulations and Classification Best Practices
Course Description:
Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) exemptions are not new, but many employers are still struggling to understand them. In fact, FLSA misclassification litigation is on the rise and even companies that believed they were compliant are finding themselves in court.
As is FLSA weren’t enough for employers to master, you also must juggle FLSA compliance with the requirements of applicable state and local wage and hour laws.
